Beautiful job Karl. You and Vilius, in particular, really do an exceptional job of painting and color selection for your builds. It's such a significant thing that can easily be overlooked. The same kit could be built just as precisely, with similar colors, but it just won't look the same. You two seem to really nail the muted, flat, finish - even for what are considered "bold colors" for structures like yellow, red, blue, etc.


Always enjoy your builds. Particularly the one on my layout  ;)

Karl, The finish looks great.  The aged concrete color is so much better.  I think it was lucky you can not find the chimney.  The one you put on the structure looks alot better.  I think if a person had a Fine Scale Miniature tire bumper casting and added the casting to the front of the concrete loading dock it would help out.  Steps/stairs  from the loading dock to the ground would not be a bad idea either
Just thinking outside the box

Karl,
After seeing what you did with the Tire Bumper & Stairs I think it helped the look of the kit alot.  I bet you thought that I would not notice! the spash of red of the Phone or inforamtion box besides the doors (nice touch)  Once again great build + adding the couple of small details made the build look a little more life like  Keep the Red Up & the magaizes might let you do a front cover sometimes.  Boy did it take me a long time to figure it out.
